Product Information

Silk helps your skin and hair to smoothly slide across the pillow at night, whereas cotton absorbs and retains moisture from your skin and hair, ironing in sleep wrinkles and causing hair breakage. Therefore, many people have been accustomed to sleeping on small or large bed linen made from Egyptian cotton, are now making a switch to silk. We take intellectual property concerns very seriously, but many of these problems can be resolved directly by the parties involved. Also, a lesser -known fact of cotton is that because of its property where it absorbs and retains moisture, it becomes a breeding ground for dust-mites and bacteria which are responsible for triggering household allergies. The items are all sold directly by the silk manufacturer, which helps keep the cost down without sacrificing performance.

There are also king and euro sizes, plus animal print, marble and stripe patterns in envelope and zippered options. Pictured is midnight blue king size pillow cases, along with a midnight blue duvet set and brilliant white flat sheet.Plus, the champagne-coloured piping and slightly rounded corners add detailing which we think looks extra luxe. Our testers also gave the fabric high scores across the board, from comfort to appearance to overall satisfaction, and noted that it held up well to home laundering. The lack of friction caused when using a 100% pure silk pillowcase versus a cotton pillowcase has the effect of reducing fine lines and puffiness on your face when you wake up each morning.

Silk fabrics are breathable and temperature regulating to help your body maintain an optimum sleeping temperature. Just note that it did show some signs of wear after washing, and the brand makes skin-related claims that we couldn't validate in our evaluations. It's available in more sizes than other options (including a mini size to fit toddler or travel pillows), and you can choose between a single or a two-pack for an even better value. Its naturally temperature-regulating properties draw heat away from your skin, helping you sleep cool and wake up fresh for a more rejuvenated feeling in the morning. It also earned perfect comfort scores and one tester described the fabric as "the perfect weight — not too light or too heavy.

There’s no static created by silk as you toss and turn overnight either, so these pillowcases should eradicate frizz. This makes your silk pillowcase a hot weather must-have and a luxurious way to help to deal with hot flushes. Our strands have seemed softer with ongoing use and less prone to breakage, and we noticed no morning pillow creases either.

It feels exceptionally smooth, though we found that its smoothness faded a bit after repeated washings. The zippers tend to enclose the pillow better, but they sometimes look a little flimsy and can be finicky to open and close. The result is an incredibly smooth and soft fabric, which is 100% free of any artificial softeners, bleaches and dyes.Free travel bag to take your pillowcases away with you so you can have luxury wherever you lay your head. This product has been a silk pillowcase stalwart of ours for a few years, and we love the sleek finish and breathable, soft fabric on our skin and hair.
